Our Partners

As our distribution and business expand, we are always humbled by other companies approaching us to partner with them in various ways. Here we would like to give an honorable mention to our fellow partners that help make our publishing magazines possible.

PayPal

Right from the very beginning, we worked closely with PayPal and various developers to bring the Magforest website a cutting edge payment system. The result was a PayPal integrated split payment system. That pays our publishers instantly!. Simply astounding in terms of speed. Most magazine distribution platforms make the payments to their publishers 30 - 60 days later. Ours is instant. Thank you, PayPal for making this possible.

MicroMAG

We partnered with MicroMAG about 2 years ago, and since this time they have contributed a steady flow of mags that showcase photographers and their works with leading international models. Currently with over 600 MicroMAGs available. You can now find MicroMAG as a major category in the categories list on the main left menu. Thank you to the MicroMAG team for the continued hard work and dedication towards our partnership.

Dropbox

When you are dealing with hundreds of employees & publishers and thousands of customers. It makes sense to have an extremely versatile online file transfer system. We use dropbox to safely move documents around the web. If you have never used it before we would highly recommend it. Working with the dropbox team to organize clean and easy solutions, has been a dream.

Mag Merch

This is a new partnership that we are extremely excited about. Mag Merch is in the final development stages. This will essentially allow all of our publishers to add a range of merchandise to their brand. Imagine your customers being able to purchase a t-shirt or other merch product when they purchase your magazine.

PDF Uploads

Why spend hours formatting your ebook so that you can upload it. We tried this on other platforms, it was kind of a nightmare. So we use standard PDF Exports for all of our Magazines. For our Digital Downloads, if you are exporting from Adobe Indesign, simply choose Adobe PDF (Interactive) for your main file and Adobe PDF (Print) for your print file.

PDF Security

Because our website uses Interactive PDFs for the downloads, this gives publishers the option to password protect the extract & print functions on their PDF. Meaning readers can read it fine, but not mess with its contents. This is an extra layer of security for publishers, only available on Magforest.

JPG Covers & Previews

We recommend the standard adobe InDesign JPG format 150 PPI for a nice crisp high resolution covers on the website, and we typically use 96 PPI or you can use 150 PPI for the preview images as well...
